status-duplicate Rob Monster bought Namepros without paying a dime.

Have you all ever thought of subleasing NamePros to some of the well known companies in the domain Industry lets say for 1k to 5k a month depending on how big of a section it is so each company can have their own area of the forum (not just a thread) that they can use to post different threads...

status-duplicate Rob Monster bought Namepros without paying a dime.

I believe that the many programs that you are introducing through Epik have the potential to be of great benefit to domainers and the general public at large provided that you as the CEO of Epik and the creator of all these new programs and services set the right guidelines and rules for the...

Hopefully they'll take things much more seriously in this conference, This might be the last chance to take some concrete actions towards saving our Home Planet before it reaches the point of no return. Climate Change is Accelerating. IMO

discuss What to do with a UDRP fixer-upper that is held via privacy proxy?

This is inline with what I suggested couple of post earlier, but I meant a program to be implemented at a bigger level that everyone in the Domain Industry can participate in and support. If some kind of assistance is provided to those who are victims of obvious complainant overreach that might...

discuss What to do with a UDRP fixer-upper that is held via privacy proxy?

@Rob Monster , if I understand this correctly you want to have a limo driver for domainers so that if they are pulled over for speeding it will be the driver who is going to interact with the law and not the person sitting in the back seat, but how do you address the part about "intent at the...

We Want Forever Registration!

Although a little too long, but this might make for a good domain name. This might also be a good subject for a new thread so that there can be some discussion as to how people can preserve their domains and websites (and other digital assets) beyond their own lifetime. IMO

discuss So what's your calling? And what do domain names have to do with it?

JB this is more than just business, for some it's a matter of values and principals that they hold dear and want to stand by. Aren't you bothered when people get censored on the basis of the political or religious interests and agendas of others. We all agree that there might be cause for...

Domain Layaway and Post-pay Backorders

Rob, if you personally review the domains that are going to be put in layaway that will surely improve the quality of the portfolios that are created through the layaway program specially for those domainers who are constantly in the process of refining their portfolio. Refining = dropping bad...

Name Selection Poll for Root Certificate brand

It's not a big deal now, @Rob Monster already explained to me in PM that he had so many domain submissions at the same time that he missed my suggestion, I am sure that he would have registered it if he had seen my PM on time. I only suggested this domain, it's not something that I would have...

strategy Retargeting of visitors of domains for sale/lease

As @Xabial already mentioned which I agree with we should be "Cautiously Optimistic" about the idea of Targeting, but we should consider all its effects to make sure that it doesn't produce any negative results. If the majority of people find it acceptable and are not bothered with the ads...

sales Recent New-Extension Sales: Outliers or Trends?

@Bob Hawkes , thanks for another nice article, one thing that should also be looked at and analyzed is the method of pricing these domains, understandably if some of these domains had been priced in the three figures or very low four figures then they might not have made the news. As of now it...

strategy Retargeting of visitors of domains for sale/lease

You are being very reasonable as far as being "cautiously optimistic". This idea might work in certain circumstances and might have some adverse effects in some other situations. That's why any benefits that it might have versus the harmful effects that it might create have to be considered...

Thanks to @Bob Hawkes for going through all the trouble to compile all these stats, but it's important to keep in mind that these stats although interesting, but should not be used as the Only metric in selecting what New gTLDs or other TLDs are worth registering for domainers. For one thing...

poll Do you do any outbound sales for your portfolio

Rob I believe that you are on the right track, you have to experiment a little to be able to fine tune these projects and some of it is going to evolve and develop on its own as time goes by. The important thing is that you want to help empower others and put them on the road to prosperity...

Discuss your Epik Experience!

I might be wrong, but I believe when you set a default profile for your account (to be used for whois) it only works for new domain registrations and transfers, the domains that are already in your account still need to be set to the correct whois info manually, unless of course if you sat the...
